- Red Prince – A haughty but heroic lizard noble
- Sebille – An elven assassin
- Lohse – An possessed musician
- Ifan ben-Mezd – A mercenary ex-soldier
- Beast – A rebel-turned-pirate dwarf
- Fane – An undead member of the long-forgotten Eternal race
To keep things smooth and accessible, Original Sin 2 is set to bring a new and updated user interface to the console experience, to ensure the gameplay experience is as smooth and as fast as the PC version of the game.
